Review Summary

Alexandre (Eric Damain), the neglected teenager in this drama, finally gets some attention when he has a very serious accident while climbing a tree: it leads to the amputation of one of his legs. When he finds out that his mother (Stephane Audran) has a lover, he blackmails her into telling him all about it. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
